I've been building Soot, a quiet Markdown editor for Mac and iPhone.
I love how Bear feels to write in, but I want my notes as plain files like Obsidian, in folders like Apple Notes. So that's what Soot is: a comfortable place to write, in gentle colours.

The Dig (1995), a point-and-click adventure game by LucasArts. Love the atmospheric intro. Completely cinematic and blew me away when I first played it. #DOSGaming #RETROGAMING

I've been getting Soot, my Markdown notes app for Mac and iPhone, working on iPad. Folders, notes and the open note sit side by side, and you can drag a note onto a folder to file it.
The beta opens to more people soon. If you'd like an invite: https://sootsync.com

I like my Markdown out of sight, but plenty of people prefer to see it. So Soot lets you choose how much Markdown you see while you write.
Hide it completely, show it only on the line you're editing, or keep it visible all the time.

A recent exchange reminded me of one of my favourite bits of feedback from testing Soot.
One advantage of having your wife beta test your app is the quality of the feedback.
Halfway through signing up for Soot Pro: “I fucking hate this.”

I started using AI agents through software development. What surprised me was how useful they became for everything else.
An agent can know an extraordinary amount about the world while knowing almost nothing about mine.

Because "AI" means different things to different people. To some, it’s an agent that can write software. To others, code isn’t part of the picture at all. We’re debating whether AI is useful without agreeing on what we’re judging.
Just found out the thing I’ve been doing lately has a name: hostile testing. Basically, trying to break your own software on purpose.
Turns out repeatedly asking “but what if someone does this?” is a methodology.

I love these guys so much. They're speaking in one of the Khoisan languages of Southern Africa, which are unique in that they make extensive use of click consonants, and area unrelated to any other African language groups.
